Music at the Crossroads Concert featuring Eugene Friesen, Theresa Thomason, and Joel Martin
2019-10-11 19:30 - 21:30 (America/New_York) | Edwards Church of Northampton, 297 Main St., Northampton, MA, 01060, United States
On October 11, the Music at the Crossroads concert series of Edwards Church will present an evening of music by three fantastic and internationally renowned artists: Eugene Friesen (cello), Theresa Thomason (voice), and Joel Martin (piano). 4-Time Grammy Award winner Eugene Friesen is a professor of music at the Berklee School of Music and his career as a performer has sent him around the globe many times, both as a solo artist as well as the cellist for the Paul Winter Consort. Theresa Thompson is a powerhouse gospel-singer who has been the vocalist of the Paul Winter Consort for many years, as well as a collaborator with Pete Seger, John Rutter, Dream Theatre, and many others. Joel A. Martin is not only the creator of the Jazzical series, but has performed with Cab Calloway, the NY Philharmonic, and is a touring pianist with the legendary Soprano, Kathleen Battle. These three world-class musicians will be joined by the Edwards Church Choir and will perform an evening of spectacular music which should not be missed (including a premiere by church member Dave Haughey). As with all Music at the Crossroads concerts, entrance is free to the public and donations will be taken to support a local charity of the artists’ choice.

2019-09-23 15:00 - 16:00 | Edwards Church of Northampton, 297 Main St., Northampton, MA, 01060, United States
All are invited to come celebrate the Autumnal Equinox and walk the Labyrinth on Monday, September 23, 2019 at 3:00 p.m. in Addis Hall. The labyrinth is an ancient spiritual practice used by many faith and spiritual traditions. This spiritual practice is a form of body prayer which offers inspiration, guidance, meditation, contemplation, relaxation, clarification, wholeness, and healing for many. The labyrinth is not a maze. The three basic stages to this contemplative walk are: entering or walking into the labyrinth – a time to let go of distractions; centering – a time in the center to be still and silent to listen for God; exiting from the center – a time to gain direction, comfort, new energy – a time to move toward peace and a deeper relationship with the Divine.

His holistic approach to modern cello playing encompasses myriad genres and techniques, making him one of the most versatile young cellists in the world. He is an improviser, composer, and teacher who is always searching for new ways to expand the unique capabilities of the cello, thus trailblazing a path to a world where the instrument is known not only for is place in classical music but also a versatile and ubiquitous tool for music making in any genre. He has performed with the Paul Winter Consort, Eugene Friesen, Zohar Fresco, Armen Ksajikian, Roman Stolyar, Andrew Bishop, and others across the globe from the USA, to Asia, South America, Europe, and the Middle East. Dave has taught private lessons and workshops at festivals and schools around the world, including at The Berklee School of Music, The Conservatory of Tatui, the Rio International Cello Encounter in Brazil.

Compassion for Ourselves: A spiritual journey - Edwards Church Mindfulness Practice Group
2018-11-18 16:00 - 17:30
What would it be like to have a kinder, gentler, more spacious heart and mind? And what if we were able to bring that kind of presence to the relationship we have with ourselves?
Most of us find it easier to feel compassion for others than for ourselves. But boundless compassion, or true love, comes from a self-compassionate heart, not one that is guided by self-blame and judgment
You are invited to join us for a mindfulness group where we will explore skillful and healing ways to respond *to ourselves* when we encounter life’s inevitable painful experiences.
If you would like to attend, please contact Linda Vincent or Deb Moore

THE ROAD HOME A SPIRITUAL PILGRIMAGE TO THE SOUTH with Kate Stevens
2018-10-21 16:00 - 17:30 | Edwards Church of Northampton, 297 Main St., Northampton, MA, 01060, United States
THE ROAD HOME
A SPIRITUAL PILGRIMAGE TO THE SOUTH
with Kate Stevens
October 21 ~ 4-5:30 p.m.
Edwards Church of Northampton
297 Main Street
Northampton, MA

Though this country prides itself on principles of democracy and justice for all, in actuality the U.S. was founded on the practices of genocide and slavery. Stevens, who recently undertook a three-month, 6,000 mile pilgrimage to the Southern states to better understand our racial history, uses pictures and words to follow the history of Africans brought to this land by force—a history of slavery, war, racial violence, segregation, and now mass incarceration. This history, while devastating, is also a story of resistance and determination. Please join us, and share in this conversation. Sponsored by the Board of Faith Formation.

FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

In his review of Tears We Cannot Stop: A Sermon to White America by Michael Eric Dyson, Patrick Phillips, a professor of English at Drew University, writes of this book: “I can only hope that others will read and be changed by this book. It ends with a desperate plea for white Americans to rise up in defense of, and in solidarity with, our African-American brothers and sisters. Dyson, an ordained Baptist minister writes: “What I need to say, can only be said in “a plea, a cry, a sermon, from my heart to yours.”
The dates and time for this Monday evening book discussion are:
October 1, 15, & 29 and November12
from 7-8:30 p.m. in the Heritage Room

Resting in the Breath: Healing Practice for Mind and Body
2018-05-06 16:00 - 17:30 | Edwards Church of Northampton, 297 Main St., Northampton, MA, 01060, United States
Spring 2018 MINDFULNESS
Resting in the Breath: Healing Practice for Mind and Body
MAY 6, 2018
4:00 to 5:30 p.m.
Our daily lives are made up of times of being awake and of times of being asleep, but what about resting? In our busy lives, do we know how to rest? And further, even after sleeping, why is it that sometimes we do not feel rested?
You are invited to join our mindfulness group this spring as we explore “resting in the breath,” a mindfulness practice that teaches us how to breathe with awareness, how to calm our body and mind, and how to rest there. This is a beautiful, ancient, and practical practice that can guide sitting or walking meditation, and it can also offer us rest in moments throughout the day or night.
This mindfulness group is open to those who are experienced in meditation as well as to those who are complete beginners. The group welcomes youth who are in sixth grade and above as well as adults of all ages. We will meet in the chancel area of Edwards Church. Linda Vincent will be facilitating.
If you are interested, please contact Linda Vincent or Deb Moore.
